damnit i was about to start a new thread that said the same thing...but im getting mine this week...well at least making the deal...hopefully tomorrow.

i'm thinking of

gray, black, or laser blue...


black was my original choice...then i saw the blue and that is pretty sweet, but might draw extra attention. and finally i determined that gray is pretty sweet too....no yellow, orange, or red for me!


i have no idea which to get...i just want to freaking own one already.

blue stands out real nice.. and thats what I'm leaning towards.. Red is too bright, Yellow is too bright... and orange doesn't have orange inserts which is a big -- black just doesn't really look as nice as these others colors, and that was really my original decision, but I'm really leaning towards Blue now...

If it was still Arrival Blue, I'd say blue in a heartbeat, but I hate, hate, hate the Laser Blue...aka Blurple. Black's a lot of work to keep clean, red and yellow are like cop magnets. So I guess the only choice left is orange (I hate silver on a coupe).

you know, im getting this car and I want it to stand out and turn heads, so I think I'm deff gonna get the blue.. it stands out nice, not too bright, looks good with dark tint...

I really am **** about getting black cars, I love black - - but everyone has black, and theres not that many blues that look as good as this one
the only other color i'd get would be orange, and theres no orange inserts for the seats/doors so that automatically eliminates that.

No, THAT is Laser Blue, which looks completely different in pictures than it does in person. In person it looks VERY purple. In some lights it looks more purple than blue, but the color never comes across in photographs very well.

FWIW, there is also going to be a NEW blue this year, Pace Blue. Supposed to be similar to the blue that Mazda uses on the RX-8's and such (from what I've been told).

Lol sorry. I meant to include it, but I forgot, but I've pretty much eliminated that from my choices... however, Is the cool looking blue gone? Is that one in the picture above the Arrival blue? Does anyone have pictures to compare the different colors?

Right now it's Blue or Orange, and if they took the good blue off, I don't see a point in blue!

Real (A-blue) by far was the best color.

I regret getting black. Its nice and all but damn is it hard to keep clean since i dont have a garage.

I really want them to make the SS/SC in white. I'd trade mine in on a white one in a second. With those stock 18" rims it would look sexy as Jessica Alba laying naked under my bed sheets...well almost

Orange, I love how everyone and their mother looks at it. I was between it and silver, but I got a better reaction to the orange.

I prefer Mellow Yellow, but true about the cop flag. This thing is bigger than a nascar checkered flag waving. I still love it. I'm an incredibly huge Steeler fan though, that's my reason for yellow!

I love the laser blue, that color was my first choice, but my dealer only had black, and they were having trouble locating a blue one for me, so i took the black. Better black then none!

I must say though, they are crazy hard to keep clean, but washed and waxed i think they look so much better than most other colors
